1089 Dynasty Meeting
Liu Haojia and Zhang Jia didn't know what Emperor Wanli saw to be so angry, it's not a good story! So they looked at each other and lowered their heads tacitly, waiting for Emperor Wanli to calm down.
After a while, Emperor Wanli came back to his senses, but the first thing he did was not to look at the other files, but to ask directly: "Liu Aiqing, who has seen these things?" ”
Liu Haojia immediately said: "Long live the lord! The minister only read a few books, and he didn't read them all! I watched it to determine the authenticity! And when the minister looked at it, he deliberately didn't look at the names of the people in front of him, but only looked at some things in the middle! And later, when the minister ordered the people below to tidy up, he also let them act as overseers in pairs to ensure that they would not look at it! So the only one who can see the whole picture is Banzai Ye alone! ”
Then Liu Haojia heard Emperor Wanli exhale slightly. He knew that this level was over! It seems that I made the right decision not to read the content at that time! If you see it all, maybe Emperor Wanli will think if you want to blackmail hundreds of officials?
And Liu Haojia also knows that if this file wants to be sorted out, someone will definitely have to look at it in the end! I'm afraid that the people who look at it are some little eunuchs who have just entered the palace and are still literate! And there is a high probability that these little eunuchs will be wiped out after sorting out the files! Because no emperor can allow this thing to exist, or when it exists, it is not under his control!
Sure enough, I heard Emperor Wanli say: "Aiqing is doing a good job!" But it's late today, so let's stop here! I'll put these things here until I've seen them! ”
Liu Haojia was naturally happy to hand over this hot potato, so he simply left the palace after giving a gift! He understands that Emperor Wanli is the only one who has the final decision, and anyone who interferes will be easily counterattacked!
In the days that followed, it was as if nothing had happened, and nothing unusual had happened even to the imperial court! So in the blink of an eye, it's time for the third court push! At this time, the attention of the whole Jingshi, and even the whole world, was on the next day at the Great Dynasty Meeting!
The first two court push failures caused a strong response in Beijing and the world! Everyone understood that Emperor Wanli did not like people of the new faction. also wants to put power in the hands of the people of the original Zhang Juzheng faction. But the first two defeats gave the new faction hope of victory!
If they can really succeed in electing one of their own people to the position of first assistant, then the possibility of overthrowing Zhang Juzheng's new policy will become practical! This is a matter concerning the money bags of the officials and gentry of the world, and they cannot afford to give up all their strength!
Therefore, in the days leading up to Tingtui, people on both sides have launched vigorous lobbying work. But all those who are qualified to participate in the court push are all guests in the house, and both sides are showing their abilities! And the people who were visited naturally also played Tai Chi, trying not to expose their true thoughts, not wanting to offend anyone!
But the people on all sides are old bureaucrats for many years, so they can naturally judge the truth of their promises through clues! Therefore, Shen Shixing's side was worried, and now the new faction headed by Shen Li was full of interest, just waiting for the convening of the Great Dynasty Meeting!
Early the next morning, the officials gathered again in the square in front of the palace! Now it can be seen that the whole crowd is divided into three distinct parts!
One is a group of people who follow Shen Shixing, and this group of people has the smallest number of people! The second is the opposition led by Shen Li, who are slightly more numerous! And the largest number is naturally the neutrals! However, it is obvious from the position they occupy that the so-called neutral faction is inclined to Shen Li's side!
Seeing this result, Shen Shixing and the others were full of gloom! And Shen Li and the others were smiling, looking like they were winning!
After a while, the gate of the palace opened, and everyone walked into the main hall! But after entering the main hall, they were surprised to find that Emperor Wanli had already sat on the dragon chair in advance! And from his expressionless face, you can see that he is in a bad mood!
While observing Emperor Wanli's expression, they also found that there were more than a dozen boxes on the ground in the center of the main hall! No more, no less, exactly 16, arranged in four rows! They are very familiar with this kind of box, which is the wooden box used by the imperial court to store all kinds of files, but they don't know what kind of files are stored inside!
However, everyone quickly focused on Emperor Wanli, after all, the emperor is in a bad mood and is prone to trouble, so he must always be careful!
However, the officials naturally guessed the reason why he was in a bad mood! It's because the two court pushers didn't launch the first assistant who suits his heart, so he put on a cold face here to intimidate the ministers!
But the giver doesn't care! An emperor who has not grown all his hair is not an opponent against these old fritter bureaucrats! Today he faces a third defeat and at the same time has to face the consequences of losing his prestige! From now on, the court is still in the hands of civil officials! But even so, they were careful to be respectful! The winner always has to be gracious in the face of the loser!
After everyone worshiped Emperor Wanli, they were divided into two classes and stood up! The eunuch on duty shouted loudly: "There is a book to play, but there is no book to retreat!" This means that this pilgrimage meeting has officially begun!
Shen Li quietly made a gesture to the person behind him, signaling an imperial historian to test the firepower! He really wanted to know what was the purpose of Emperor Wanli's posture today?
Yushi, who got the signal, had no choice but to raise his legs and go out of work! But before he reached the middle of the main hall, he heard Emperor Wanli say loudly: "Go back!" ”
The imperial historians and the officials were stunned when they heard this! Especially this imperial history didn't react! And in his impression, Yushi has a lot of privileges, and he has never been stopped from speaking! Like him, who was ordered back by the emperor just after leaving work, he was probably the first person in the Ming Dynasty!
So now he hesitated whether to obey Emperor Wanli's assignment, or was he ready to show off his style? And just before he could make a decision, Emperor Wanli had already slapped the table, pointed at him and said loudly: "Go back!" Can't you understand what I'm saying? ”
Now this imperial history was scared, and he crawled back into the crowd! And the officials were also surprised by Emperor Wanli's performance today! In the past, Emperor Wanli could be said to be a very gentle and elegant person, and he never had a word of importance for the hundred officials!
But today, he was so angry that he pointed at Yushi's nose and yelled at him to get out! This shows that something will definitely happen to today's pilgrimage! It can't be related to the boxes on the ground! So it's better to wait and see! So Shen Shixing and Shen Li each signaled their subordinates to be quiet, waiting for Emperor Wanli to uncover the mystery!
